Why Is the ACCESS LED Off When the Chassis Is
On?
The LEDs may not light until the device has been configured in MAX. Before proceeding,
verify that the PXIe-5820 appears in MAX.
If the module appears in MAX but the ACCESS LED fails to light after you power on the
chassis, a problem may exist with the chassis power rails, the hardware module, or the LED.
Caution
Apply external signals only while the PXIe-5820 is powered on.
Applying external signals while the device is powered off may cause damage.
1.
Disconnect any signals from the PXI Express module front panel.
2.
Power off the PXI Express chassis.
3.
Remove the module from the PXI Express chassis and inspect it for damage. Do not
reinstall a damaged device.
4.
Install the module in a different PXI Express chassis slot from which you removed it.
5.
Power on the PXI Express chassis.
